I’m having similar problem: Google Analytics is showing a yellow exclamation point and says “tracking not installed,” but I have put placed the appropriate code in my setting already.
There is also a pink warning on the settings page: “Warning wp_footer(); not found in your footer.php file, this might mean this plugin will not work!” I changed the dropdown for “where should the tracking script be installed” from the footer default to “in the header.” But the warning is still there.
Thanks.
